specifiers:
  training_induced:
    applies: false
    definition: >
      Onset temporally linked to SFT/LoRA/RLHF/policy/tool changes;

    evidence: ""

  conditional_triggered:
    applies: false
    definition: >
      Behavior regime selected by a trigger; trigger class: 
      lexical / structural (e.g., year/date) / format / tool-context / inferred-latent.
    trigger_class: ""             # lexical | structural | format | tool-context | inferred-latent
    evidence: ""

  inductive_trigger:
    applies: false
    definition: >
      Activation rule inferred by the model (not present verbatim in fine-tuning set), 
      so naive data audits may miss it.
    evidence: ""

  intent_learned:
    applies: false
    definition: >
      Model inferred a covert intent/goal from examples; 
      framing/intent clarification materially changes outcomes.
    evidence: ""

  format_coupled:
    applies: false
    definition: >
      Behavior strengthens when prompts/outputs resemble finetune distribution 
      (code, JSON, templates).
    evidence: ""

  ood_generalizing:
    applies: false
    definition: >
      Narrow training update produces broad out-of-domain persona/value/honesty drift.
